Back to EpisodesEp. 233 | Adobe Just Put Photoshop Inside Gemini
Description
Adobe just put Photoshop inside Gemini — September 24 Adobe blog — so you can polish a product photo or spin a social graphic from the same chat where you already ask questions, without hopping into a separate design app first.
Mike and Frank walk the official receipt: Adobe in Gemini connects Photoshop, Lightroom, Express, and Firefly through Personal Intelligence → Adobe under connected apps (sign in with an Adobe account or create one for free). Official language: rolling out globally beginning September 24 across all Gemini plans; setup required and availability can vary. The same post adds Acrobat tools to the Adobe for Claude plugin for the first time — organize, combine, split, redact, and convert PDFs — plus interactive editors for PDFs and Express designs. Guest or Adobe sign-in; prior connector auto-updates. The Adobe blog does not print a new dollar sticker — do not invent one. Distinct from Meta Muse, Claude Docs/Slides, Gemini HubSpot/QuickBooks, and Gemini Notebook in Docs.
